JJ DiBenedetto's Top 10 Favorite Authors!

JJ DiBenedetto's Top 10 Favorite Authors!

It’s always hard to narrow down a list of my favorite authors – how do you limit a lifetime of reading to just ten names? But I’ll give it a shot – in no particular order, and if I did this list next week, it would probably look very different:

Stephen R. Donaldson – the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant are something of an acquired taste, but I love them.

J.K. Rowling – I don’t think I need to explain anything about her, do I?

Frank Herbert – and not just for the Dune series, either.

Mark Helprin – this is primarily for one book, “Winter’s Tale.” Which is, hands down, the best book I’ve ever read.

Nick Bantock – I loved the “Griffin & Sabine” books, but his other work (especially “The Venetian’s Wife”) is great, too.

Terry Pratchett – another name that requires no further explanation.

Rainbow Rowell – her books are almost TOO honest; I couldn’t reread “Eleanor and Park” because she did far too good a job of transporting me back to high school, a place I never, ever want to go back to.

Julian May – the Pliocene Exile books are one of my favorite works ever.

Biography

J.J. DiBenedetto is author of the Dream Series and the Jane Barnaby Adventures (second in the series is coming this summer) and lives in Arlington, Virginia with the love of his life and a white cat who rules the roost.

His passions are photography, travel, strong coffee and of course writing.

Mr. DiBenedetto is devoted to writing books with a sense of mysticism to entertain and perhaps invite his readers to suspend belief in a way they might never have.

Since he was very young boy, he has always been intrigued with the supernatural and things that can't always be explained.

By always asking way too many questions, it piqued his interest to the point of setting his writing off and running when he grew up! All the curiosity building up all those years were finally getting put into words to captivate readers. And it hasn't ended. His main goal is to share all the stories he has inside, putting pen to paper . And that's how the Dream Series was born.

Mr. DiBenedetto welcomes queries and feedback from his loyal readers. You can email him at jamesd@elevendayempire.com or at his website www.writingdreams.net .

The next Jane Barnaby Adventure will be ready soon and he's anxious to hear what you think!
